It would most definitely be suitable for an Accyweb meet-up. The pub is very spacious inside, with plenty of comfortable seating areas. To the rear of the pub, there are some picnic style table and seat combinations, on the edge of an enclosed carpark. Behind this, overlooked by the Coppice, there is a grassed area.
Behind the bar was the usual range of lagers, cider and fizz beer. Most noticeably they were serving three real live beers. Moorhouses Premier, brewed in Burnley; Timothy Taylor's Landlord and a very dry summer ale by the Phoenix Brewery called Arizona. This place certainly gets a thumbs up from me, for the quality and selection of real beer.
